Description by
CVSS 2.0
4.3
MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Mozilla Firefox versions prior to 45.0
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and obtain sensitive information by reading a Content Security Policy (CSP) violation report that contains path information associated with an IFRAME element. This is related to a lack of protection for service data, which can be exploited by a remote attacker to bypass existing access restriction policies or gain confidential information.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 45.0, update to version 45.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive information and limiting the use of IFRAME elements until the update is applied.
